RESEARCH AND PROJECTS.

* GRADUATE THESIS: Speech compression using linear predictive coding and embedded zero tree wavelet coding.

* Worked on compression of speech signal by using linear predictive coding and zero tree wavelet coding.

* The output of the LPC filter known as the residual signal is compressed by using a technique called EZW.

* Demonstrated increase in quality of signal with increases in number of passes.

* Debugging was done in MATLAB by using breakpoints and commands like dbstop, dbclear, dbcont.

* VLSI PROJECT: Designing of 4-bit Adder Using XOR and NAND Gate.

* XOR gate was designed by using transmission gates.

* XOR logic was implemented by using only 6 transistors.

* NAND gate performs the task of giving output logic for CARRY.

* Using the cell hierarchical structures in MAGIC we have built a 1-bit adder.

* 4-Bit ADDER is constructed using 1-Bit adder as a building cell.

* EMBEDDED SYSTEM PROJECT: Robot Control Module.

* Designed control module for two wheel robot to move forward and backward in centimeters and turn at a specified angle.

* Atmega 161 microcontroller was used.

* Robot stops when bumper hits an obstacle.

* UNDERGRADUATE PROJECT: Remote monitoring and fault detection over a wireless network.

* We designed an automated system to sense the fault and display the faulty parameters.

* Sensor circuit senses the faulty parameter and is given to the input of the signal conditioning circuit.

* The failed parameters are displayed on the display unit and announced audibly through speaker.
